First as a solo artist, Da Davo released a series of records in which he collaborated with other producers\u2014until he found in Glenn Keteleer (also known as Radikal G) and Pieter-Jan Theunis the perfect battle partners.

To move in a more electronic direction, as the name suggests?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>\u2014<\/strong><span class=\"fontstyle0\">I released the first <strong>Neon Electronics<\/strong>\u2019 album in 1999. The project started from a <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">desire towards freedom, independence and change. During the first years the project <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">was mainly electronic inspired, a few years later I started experimenting more with <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">guitars. Over the years the project has known an evolution in music styles, setup and <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">collaboration with some amazing musicians. This diversity is something I am proud off.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>\u2014The second LP, <em>System Rivera<\/em>, is a little less club-oriented\u2014or at least you sing more on it. Could you tell us about it? It was a success, wasn&#8217;t it?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>\u2014<\/strong> <span class=\"fontstyle0\">System Riviera was released in 2003 on CD and on vinyl via the French label <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">\u201cLe Maquis\u201d. Yes, the album was a success, also thanks to the collaboration with the <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">distribution company \u201cNA\u00cfVE\u201d. I even sold a reasonable number of copies in Russia, <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">which might be a bit of a risky thing to say these days :-). Some songs have more <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">vocals, indeed, but the song &#8220;Sept XL&#8221; brings you straight away to the techno clubs.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>\u2014<span class=\"fontstyle0\"><em>Monkey Ever After<\/em> is another strong Neon Electronics<\/span><\/strong><strong><span class=\"fontstyle0\">\u2019 album, specially<\/span><\/strong><strong>\u00a0the collaboration with The Hacker on Better Way really stands out.

We got and still get along very well, and we share <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">the same passions. Michel came up with the idea of sending me a track he was working <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">on, and for sure that I was enthusiastic and started writing some lyrics and recording the <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">vocal arrangements. \u201cBetter Way\u201d was recently re-released on red vinyl by Link <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">Records, a label from Liege (Belgium). Almost 20 years later the track is still making <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">people dance.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>\u2014 On <em>Keylogger<\/em> you started working with Radikal G, who went on to become a full member on the following album.

I immediately became a fan of his music, which is just like mine dark <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">inspired with a modern touch.

It is was the same bar <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle2\">where we recorded The Neon Judgement`s NION live and on the spot, the recording <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle2\">which you can find on the album 1981-1984. It took some years before we made a <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle2\">closer connection. In fact, those days we did not talk much with colleagues-musicians, <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle2\">we just stayed uber-cool in these cold wave times. <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle2\">Later we invited Luc as a producer for some tracks on the TNJ album \u201cBlood and <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle2\">Thunder\u201d. He was also on stage with The Neon Judgement as a guest musician at the <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle2\">Pukkelpop Festival in Belgium (2015) and for our final show in Ancienne Belgique in <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle2\">Brussels, Belgium (2015).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span class=\"fontstyle2\">Then everything went quiet, until 2 years ago I suddenly received a message from Luc if <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle2\">I would like to make remix of \u201cIt <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle3\">\u0308<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle2\">s Been A While\u201d , a new track he did.
